224: Chapter 224: Marry Me or I’ll Kill You 224: Chapter 224: Marry Me or I’ll Kill You “Seeking death.” Athena tightly gripped her golden greatsword and leaped forward in a swift jump, slashing down towards Ji Qian.
“Moonlight Formation.” Ji Qian waved her magic wand, and the Moonlight Formation slowly enveloped above Athena’s head.
Dealing with Athena, Ji Qian didn’t dare to be careless at all.
In terms of strength, neither Poseidon nor Hephesto could compare to Athena.
From her tone, Ji Qian didn’t understand why Athena specifically wanted Ye Shikai’s life.
The greatsword struck the Moonlight Formation, causing a massive explosion.
Ji Qian stepped back several times.
Just one sword strike shattered the Moonlight Formation, and the golden greatsword in Athena’s hands was also a Divine Artifact from the Valkyrie Temple.
But Ji Qian hadn’t expected that she could shatter the Moonlight Formation in one move.
Athena was spirited and stabbed towards Ji Qian.
The Sword Qi was like the wind, powerful and vigorous.
Ji Qian dodged, and a giant tree behind her instantly turned into powder.
“My lady.” Selena, anxious to protect her master, picked up a long knife from the ground, trying to launch a sneak attack on Athena.
“Overestimating yourself.” Athena turned around and struck Selena’s abdomen with her palm.
“Selena.” Ji Qian shouted, and that palm had directly made Selena spit blood.
Her body flew out like a kite with its string cut.
“Moon God Spell—Falling Stars.” Ji Qian waved her magic wand, and several silver lights shot out from the wand, like stars crossing the sky, containing the Power of Stars, with tremendous might.
Athena’s pupils shrank as she recognized this Main God Skill and did not dare to underestimate it.
She waved the greatsword, forming a golden Sword Qi to meet the silver lights.
A loud noise, and the massive energy created a blast wave.
Athena quickly retreated, and in this clash, Ji Qian had the upper hand.
“Moon God, you’re really determined not to stop until death.” Athena didn’t expect that Ji Qian would fight so desperately to protect Ye Shikai, even using a Main God Skill.
“I told you, you are not allowed to touch him.” Ji Qian glared defiantly, without a trace of fear.
She looked back at the unconscious Ye Shikai and suddenly remembered the scene a year and a half ago.
Ye Shikai was shot by the Radiant Divine Arrow to save her, his gaze at that time was so resolute…
Everyone also held their ground, standing behind Ji Qian to protect Ye Shikai.
They had faced life and death without fear before, and now was no exception.
“Fine, then today I’ll start with you.” Athena closed her eyes, and suddenly her greatsword flashed bright golden light.
“Valkyrie Spell—Giant Sword Slash.” Athena shouted loudly, leaped up, and a golden Sword Qi slashed down towards everyone, majestic as if it could split heaven and earth, like a wild wind that could blow away everything around it, including trees and grass.
“Everyone, be careful.” Ji Qian warned the people behind her, waving her magic wand to activate the Moonlight Formation.
The gemstones above shone with silver light, forming a barrier.
The powerful Sword Qi from the Giant Sword Slash felt like a mountain bearing down on them, creating a strong sense of pressure.
“Bang.” Two powerful energies collided, like a nuclear explosion creating a formidable blast wave; everyone was forced to retreat several steps, falling to the ground.
Blood slowly dripped from Ji Qian’s mouth—she had lost in the clash.
The next second, a greatsword aimed directly at her, and Ji Qian silently closed her eyes.
“Stop.” Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed out, and Ji Qian felt as if someone had picked her up.
Slowly opening her eyes, when she saw that familiar face, tears welled up in Ji Qian’s eyes.
“Fool, if you can’t beat them, run.” Ye Shikai smiled, his lips slightly upturned, his tone full of affection, and Ji Qian’s tears finally overflowed.
“Hades, you’ve finally awakened, huh?” Ye Shikai slowly put Ji Qian down and walked over to Athena.
“Athena, why are you so resentful?” Everyone was shocked; they thought Ye Shikai would come up and beat her up but he started talking instead.
“Pah, you faithless man.” Athena’s words were shocking.
Ji Qian, still moved to tears, heard this and stared directly at Ye Shikai, looking very astonished.
All I did was accidentally see you bathing, how does that make me faithless?” Ye Shikai was even more shocking with his words, leaving everyone stunned by his audacity.
Ye Shikai, he actually peeped on Athena bathing.
“I don’t care, you’ve seen my body, you’re a faithless man.” Athena suddenly became like a little girl, her pretty face turning bright red, feeling somewhat embarrassed to discuss such a topic in front of so many people.
“You traveled all this way to Holy Mountain just to find me for this?” Ye Shikai asked.
“What else?” Athena retorted.
Unexpectedly, Athena so resolutely wanted to kill Ye Shikai, merely because he had seen her bathing.
Guessed the beginning but not the end.
“Can’t I just apologize to you?” Ye Shikai was somewhat speechless.
The whole incident was a misunderstanding.
Who would have thought that a woman would be bathing in the depths of Old Lin, and who could have imagined that this woman would be Athena?
For this, Ye Shikai had been bothered for half a year.
Even less expected was that Athena would spill such an embarrassing secret in front of so many people.
Ye Shikai could already feel Ji Qian’s icy gaze…
“Pah, you’ve already taken advantage, and you think an apology is going to work?” Athena cursed loudly.
“Then what do you want me to do?” Ye Shikai said.
“Marry me, or I will kill you.” After hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Athena actually made such a demand.
Speaking of Athena, she was indeed a great beauty, and to say that she was stunningly beautiful was no exaggeration.
But Ye Shikai was not enthused; who could stand marrying such a fierce wife?
Not to mention, Ji Qian was right behind him.
“I’m already married.
You know that, don’t you?” Ye Shikai managed to say it after a moment, helplessly.
“I don’t mind that you’ve been married.”
“But I do mind,” Ye Shikai said indifferently.
“Pah, faithless man, I’m going to kill you.” Athena was furious, gripping her great sword tightly.
It’s not like I did more than accidentally see you bathing.
Why does that make me a faithless man?
And didn’t I apologize to you already?” Ye Shikai hurriedly spoke.
Athena was so quick-tempered and it’d be bad if she lost her control.
“At this rate, I might as well let you watch me bathe,” Ye Shikai said nonchalantly.
“I’m going to chop you up.” Athena was so angry she ground her teeth, charging at Ye Shikai with the intent to tear him to pieces.
“Stop stop stop, alright, I agree.” To tell the truth, Ye Shikai was now exhausted, his strength greatly depleted.
If he fought with Athena now, he really wasn’t sure he could win, and even if he did, it would probably result in a pyrrhic victory.
So it was better to agree for now.
“But first, I have to go down the mountain and get a divorce from my wife before I can marry you.
You have to wait for me to handle these things,” Ye Shikai said, a glint in his eye as he decided to play Tai Chi with Athena.
Stall if possible and gave Ji Qian a meaningful glance, afraid that she might overthink.
